Hitler's Wehrmacht and SS units will be remembered for their
aggressive Blitzkrieg' tactics. But, as the war progressed, the
Germans, recognising the offensive capability of armoured warfare,
developed an impressive range of anti-tank warfare weaponry and
munitions. Using many rare unpublished images this Images of War
book covers the full Nazi anti-armour capability from the 3.7cm Pak
35, 5cm Pak 38 and 7.5cm Pak 40 to the versatile 8.8cm Flak feared
by the Allies. Also featured are the half-tracks and converted
Panzers that pulled or mounted these weapons and carried forward
observers and reconnaissance elements. Later hand-held anti-tank
weapons came into service and were effective and economic against
Allied armour. The Panzer faust, with its shaped charge warhead,
became the first disposable anti-tank weapon in history. This
comprehensive book shows this formidable range of weapons in action
from Poland in 1939, through North Africa and the Eastern Front to
the final collapse in 1945.
